Starting the New Year off right with an LS3 swap!

Just started on this build yesterday and it's going to be a good one. Make sure to keep checking back for updates. Lots of pictures to come.

Final shots of everything all buttoned up.



StopTech and a nice set of Volk's. Who needs the stickers on a track car?


Undercarriage with a dual Greddy setup.


Quick interior shot. Post build a proper cage will be fabricated.


Weighing in on the scales. Didn't gain too much over the holiday season

 

Nice. Going to be a stock LS3? Or will it be modded?

 

sweet build. good luck

 

Crate motor with hot cam built for some good power.

Thanks. All skill...and some luck is nice.

 

Sick!! Are you using the Sikky kit?? I thought the SIKKY kit only was for LS 1/2/6 applications??

 

in for the results

 

Time Trial car? I can't figure out why that car is so heavy...

 

very nice, can't wait to see the progress on this

 

We are using the SIKKY kit. They call it the LSX kit because the blocks are the same for all of them. So, it will bolt up just fine.

Loaded weight is around 3,800 pounds and besides having the dash most of the interior is gutted out. Brakes are bigger, but still light and of course lightweight wheels. Cage is going to add a good bit of weight back into it as well.

 

Some more progress today. I watched John pull this out and it was smooth as butter.

Everything disconnected.


And there she goes.


Soon to be filled with a very nice motor setup.

 

Motor and trans for sale?

 

This thing is going to be sick!

 

ohhh lawdy subbed

 

In for another great LSX build!

 

Sent you a pm.

Glad you all are excited for this build.

 

Flipped to install the pan and mounts from SIKKY.




Swapping on an awesome Wilwood/SIKKY combo and you can see the difference compared to the stock setup.



Waiting on a few more parts right now, but the build so far is going very well.

 

lookin good. glad he got the solid mounts! i am not alone!!!

 

Love all of this... Looking so good so far..

 

Great!!! wonder what will be the final weight of this car!

 

After the cage obviously we will be adding weight, but close to 3,000 as possible is where we would like to be.
